I have some T5 reflectors and was thinking of getting a Current 4 bulb fixture with the single reflector and adding the reflectors I have.

Does anyone know if they might fit or are the bulbs too close to each other? If not on all four bulbs, what about on any of them.

Asked and answered 1000 times. The individual reflectors are about 2.5 inches wide (Icecap SLR). The bulbs are about an inch apart give or take a small amount. They wont fit. You maybe could get one on each end bulb but you would have to tilt it so it would fit inder the adjacent bulbs and I dont think you even have the clearance. But if you did, it would probably block more reflected output from those bulbs than any gains you would get by placing reflectors on the two bulbs. Just diy with a retro kit. It will cost less money in the end.
